Seat protectors

Hi
I'm about to buy a GP sporting and asked the dealer about seat covers, he said Fiat didn't sell them. Basically I need some seat covers as i get filthy at work and don't want to mark the seats. Has anyone here bought any? I have had a look at the Halfrauds website but none of them list being able to fit a GP. They need to be suitable to fit a car with side airbags as well. Does anyone know anywhere (preferably online) where I can get some seat covers?

Cheers Jon.

I use the seat covers that I had on my previous car, bought from Argos.
I just cut the sides out to expose the side air bag panel.
I'm still looking for ready made covers the same as you.

Re: Seat protectors

do you have to cut out the sides in order for the airbags to still work correctly?

Re: Seat protectors

slightly off topic, yet amazingly the same topic:
can you buy the orig seat covers that come with the car?
as when i was cleaning i saw you can unzipp them.. does that mean the whole cover comes off?
or is it for access, as the bottom part of seat isnt as easy?

Re: Seat protectors

Hmm looks like i'm going to have to venture into Halfords and have a look. Their website is rubbish, it doesn't show any images of the seat covers. I will go and have a look I don't want the GP to look like it belongs to a Barry! They do ones with the cut outs for the side bags though.

Cheers anyway Jon.

BiGAL54 do you have any pictures of your modified/butchered seat covers? It made me laugh for a whole 5 minutes, reading your post
